Long-running German thrash metal band Kreator will release its 16th studio album, “Krushers of the World,” on Jan. 16, 2026, via Nuclear Blast Records. Pre-order/pre-save it here in various configurations.

The new album follows the recent releases of the Kreator documentary “Hate & Hope” and frontman Mille Petrozza’s autobiography, “Your Heaven, My Hell.”

“We are beyond excited to kick off the new year with the release of our brand-new album ‘Krushers of the World,’ dropping Jan. 16. But that’s not all!” Petrozza said. “On March 20, we’re hitting the road to bring you our biggest tour production ever. This will be a night of unrelenting metal mayhem, featuring our brothers-in-arms Carcass, Exodus and the mighty Nails. This marks an exciting new chapter for the band, and we can’t wait for you to experience the new music live, plus a selection of classic Kreator, old and new. Hail to the hordes!”
